Spotify: Sean Parker's Napster 2.0

MUST WATCH

That means that Spotify customers can no longer stream Yorke's 2006 solo album "The Eraser," the first album from Godrich's Ultraista project, or the Atoms For Peace album "Amok."

"The reason is that new artists get paid f*** all with this model. It's an equation that just doesn't work," Godrich wrote on Twitter. "Meanwhile small labels and new artists can't even keep their lights on. It's just not right."

More and more musicians have been speaking up about streaming services, who continually swear that their compensation packages are fair. In the eyes of Yorke and Godrich, services like Spotify (or Pandora, another frequent adversary of musicians) devalue the product created by artists.

Yorke drove that point home in his most recent tweet: "For me 'In Rainbows' was a statement of trust. People still value new music," he wrote, referencing the album his band released as a pay-what-you-want download back in 2007. "That's all we'd like from Spotify. Don't make us the target."

Spotify released a statement in response to Yorke and Godrich's tweets:

"Spotify's goal is to grow a service which people love, ultimately want to pay for, and which will provide the financial support to the music industry necessary to invest in new talent and music," a company spokesperson said Monday. "We want to help artists connect with their fans, find new audiences, grow their fan base and make a living from the music we all love.

"Right now we're still in the early stages of a long-term project that's already having a hugely positive effect on artists and new music. We've already paid $500M to rightsholders so far, and by the end of 2013 this number will reach US$1bn. Much of this money is being invested in nurturing new talent and producing great new music.

"We're 100 percent committed to making Spotify the most artist-friendly music service possible, and are constantly talking to artists and managers about how Spotify can help build their careers."
